Waldorf Classes Come to Forest Hills This Fall

We have written about the Waldorf Parent and Child program before, but this is the first time that Queens parents will now have to travel far to enjoy them. Unlike a typical “mommy and me” class, the parent and child classes at Waldorf are unique and encompass more than just music and free play. The Waldorf method of education uses natural materials such as wool, wood and other natural fibers in their classes and aim to educate parents as well as children.

“Our Parent-and-Child program offers a gentle, nurturing and appropriately stimulating environment for young children and their parents or care providers. We explore and discuss the principles that give to a harmonious family life and thus support our families as they face the joys and challenges of parenting a young child.”

The Parent and Child program is designed for children ages 12 months to 3 years attending with a parent or caregiver. These two-hour classes meet once a week on Thursdays in Forest Hills and you can find out more details here.
